Handover the scepter to Nehru: Before independence from the british, jawaharlal nehru handed over the arrangements for the Chola-style scepter handover ceremony to Rajaji, who was the governor General. Rajaji then made plans for this festival. When Rajaji thought of whom the spiritual leader could invite for the scepter handover event, Thiruvavaduthurai Atheenam came to his mind. Rajaji immediately contacted Thiruvavaduthurai Atheenam and asked if he could conduct the scepter handing-over ceremony.

Thiruvavaduthurai Athinam said that he will accept this responsibility. These ceremonies took place 15 minutes before Independence at midnight. The scepter was first handed over to Mountbatten by the Senior Guru of Thiruvavaduthurai Atheenam. It was then withdrawn. It was sprinkled with holy water brought from the ganges and taken in a procession to jawaharlal nehru, who would take over as Prime Minister.

According to the tradition of the Chola period, on august 14, 1947, at 11.45 p.m. in the Dewar, Atheenam had asked him to sing 11 songs from the Kalaru Pathikam. Accordingly, they sang the last beat of the 11th song of Devarath Tirupathigam, which starts with Veyuru Dholibangan, 'Adiyar Vanil Arsalvar Aanei Namate'. At that time, Thiruvavaduthurai Atheenam Thambiran Swami gave the golden scepter to Nehru to mark the change of power. It is noteworthy that this event was also published in the tamil Nadu Hindu Charities Department Policy Note.

Remembered 'Maha Periyavar' - the handing over of the scepter from the british to the indians is very important. However, it did not figure prominently in history. On the Independence Day of 1978, the then kanchi abbot Chandrasekharendra Saraswati Swami narrated this scepter story in a program at kanchi Shankaramada. He was called 'Maha Periyavar'. This opinion appeared in a book published after his liberation in 1994. After that, the news and pictures about it were published in the media. An article on this was published in Tughlaq magazine last May 2021.

This article was translated into english by renowned dancer Dr. Padma Subramaniam and sent to the Prime Minister's Office. He requested that the sacred historical event of giving this scepter, which is hidden in history and not informed to the people, should be made public on Independence Day 2021. It is noteworthy that the central government has verified the media report and has now approved the event of the sceptre.

Jawaharlal Nehru was draped in gold and presented with a Chola style gold scepter by the senior guru of Thiruvaduthurai Atheenam. It was received by former prime minister Jawaharlal Nehru.
